The Lion Capital of Ashoka is a sculpture of four Asiatic lions standing
back to back, on an elaborate base that includes other animals. A graphic
representation of it was adopted as the official Emblem of India in 1950. It
was originally placed atop the Aśoka pillar at the important Buddhist site of
Sarnath by the Emperor Ashoka, in about 250 BCE. The pillar, sometimes called
the Aśoka Column, is still in its original location, but the Lion Capital is
now in the Sarnath Museum, in the state of Uttar Pradesh, India. Standing 2.15
metres (7 feet) high including the base, it is more elaborate than the other
very similar surviving capitals of the pillars of Ashoka bearing the Edicts of
Ashoka that were placed throughout India several of which feature single
animals at the top; one other damaged group of four lions survives, at Sanchi.
The capital is carved out of a single block of polished sandstone, and was
always a separate piece from the column itself. It features four Asiatic Lions
standing back to back. They are mounted on an abacus with a frieze carrying
sculptures in high relief of an elephant, a galloping horse, a bull, and a
lion, separated by intervening spoked chariot-wheels. The whole sits upon a
bell-shaped lotus. The capital was originally probably crowned by a 'Wheel of
Dharma' (Dharmachakra popularly known in India as the "Ashoka
Chakra"), with 24 spokes, of which a few fragments were found on the site.
A 13th-century replica of the Sarnath pillar and capital in Wat Umong near
Chiang Mai, Thailand built by King Mangrai, preserves its crowning Ashoka
Chakra or Dharmachakra. The wheel on the capital, below the lions, is the model
for the one in the flag of India.
